HU- Took a Passive Line
 

Have been playing this guy for a bit, his stats are 45/38/3.7 all from HU.

I stacked him a few hands earlier where I raised AK, flop came Kxx he donked, I raised he called. Turn came an offsuit nine and he check/called my bet, and pushed an offsuit Ace on the river. I called and he had K9.

He seemed OK, nothing out of the ordinary. My image was extremely aggressive earlier in the match but I've been passive/tight due to being card dead. He started to raise the button every single hand. I three bet him before but he never called, and he himself has three bet a few times.

Re: HU- Took a Passive Line
 

If you don't know I don't like reraising this pre OOP. As for the hand he probly has 222 or something I would fold unless he is bluffing

Re: HU- Took a Passive Line
 

Looks like AJ or some weakish 2pair.. I'm folding river.

Re: HU- Took a Passive Line
 

Any other comments?

I don't care about the pre flop action. I just wanted to break his momentum by 3-betting him since he was kinda running over me for a bit.

What I'm really concerned about here is my turn check/call planning to check/fold the river. What do you guys think about doing this even though I don't really have that much experience with the opponent?

Re: HU- Took a Passive Line
 

It's very exploitable since your hand is pretty much face up.. thats also why I'd be much more inclined to call a bigger bet rather then the chosen one from villian. If you're not ready to call the river from time to time you should just bet the flop and take it from there.

read dependant, this is hu...you should know it better than us...there's almost no ''theoritical'' good play in hu play
